Hello, it’s Rahul. It’s been a very eventful week, from meeting my fellow STAs and other staff members to starting work. This week I’ve mostly been going through the WebDev trainings and getting familiar with the browser inspect tool as well as good website accessibility. Below are two screenshots of one accessible website (Billboards) and one inaccessible website (Yale Art).

Another training that I have done is the Web Browser Inspect Tool. In that training I utilized the inspect tool and changing some lines of HTML and CSS was able to manipulate the website, including changing images, font style, and size. You can see some of the changes below.

I have also attended the training for the COLA Refresh project and will began working on some of the trainings, including making a personal page.

Classes have also started this week so it’s been busy, but I’m sure it will all get settled into a rhythm soon. All in all, it’s going pretty well, and I’m excited to continue working on the COLA Refresh project.

Hello again, it’s me. The semester is starting tomorrow and I am not ready… but also happy to be in the office and amongst people again! Maybe I’ll stop having one-sided conversations with cats…

This week I kind of bopped around, working on photo IDs and finishing the animation project script. Excited to see where the animation project goes! It’s definitely been slow-going, as we’ve all just been working on it in our downtime, but we’re definitely starting to make some significant progress.

Also, I’ll include a couple IDs here for reference

I also worked a bit on web support and updating the STA blog as well as reviewing the documentation for the COLA web refresher project, which me and a couple other STAs will start helping with beginning tomorrow. I am storing my current questions here.

Also I have an important announcement. After careful consideration, Pirate has decided she is not open to photographs at this time.

Green Screen Training

For the green screen training, I decided to use this image:

I was able to successfully remove the green screen background and color adjust the image.

I decided to add in a forest background to the image. Since the background image was lighter, I edited the photo to make the image fit better with the background.

Photo IDs

Here are some photo IDs that I recently completed. 🙂
